PORTLAND, Ore. -- Police in Oregon say a woman told officers that her boyfriend choked her with his dreadlocks.
Portland
police Sgt. Pete Simpson says the unidentified woman was taken to a
hospital Monday for treatment of numerous non-life-threatening injuries.
The
police spokesman says 32-year-old Caleb Grotberg was arrested for
investigation of several domestic violence felony crimes, including
strangulation, fourth-degree assault and second-degree kidnapping. He's
due in court Tuesday.
Dreadlocks are matted ropes of hair.
